Posted Date: 03/09/2017

The Texas Education Agency recently released accreditation statuses for school districts and charters across the state and Pittsburg ISD earned the “A, Superior” and “Met Standard” ratings, making it an accredited Texas school district. 
Accreditation statuses are based on state academic accountability ratings, the Financial Integrity Rating System of Texas (known commonly as School FIRST), data reporting, special program effectiveness, and compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements.
Of 1,199 Texas school districts and charter school districts, 1,180 (98 percent) received a status designation of Accredited for the 2016-2017 school year. An Accredited status recognizes districts and charters as a public school that meets specific academic and financial standards.
